Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction (M17)

Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction

Once upon a time, the "Great Destruction" took place, eradicating all life in the Kalos region. The Great Destruction was brought upon by Yveltal, the "Destruction Pokémon" said to rob everything of life. After destroying everything, Yveltal turned into a "Cocoon of Destruction", in which form it still sleeps today. When this Great Destruction took place, the only one rivaling Yveltal's power was Xerneas, the "Life Pokémon". Xerneas was said to bestow life to people and Pokémon. Now, the journey to meet with these two grand legendary Pokémon of the Kalos region begins...
"Diamond Ore Country." The land where the "Jewel Pokémon" Carbink live in peace and prosperity. It is located deep underground, and no one knows its exact location. In this country, a giant diamond known as the "Sacred Diamond" can be found... For ages, the Sacred Diamond has played the role of an important energy resource, which keeps the ore country going. The only being with the power to create this type of diamond is princess Diancie herself. However, Diancie does not yet possess this power. And... time is starting to run out. The Sacred Diamond's lifespan is about to run out. When that happens, the beautiful ore country is going to perish! Having encountered Ash and Pikachu, Diancie sets out on a journey to save her country; a journey in search of the "Life Pokémon" Xerneas, seeking its sacred power.
On their way, they get attacked by the female thief "Marilyn Flame" and the ninja thief "Ninja Riot", who seek Diancie's power to create diamonds. Diancie gets into really big trouble when the Rocket Gang gets involved as well!! However, they get saved by the mysterious father and daughter duo Algus and Miriss, who suddenly show up, and somehow manage to continue onward.
And Diancie, who has lived her entire life as a princess, feels what friendship is for the very first time, growing a bit in the process... The group continues onwards, guided by the Fairy Aura Xerneas emits, until they eventually reach the forbidden Alearth Woods, where all life was once eradicated.

- Satoshi saves Diancie from Ninja Marilyn and manages to run away from them

- Diancie gets captured by Team Rocket while having a dinner with Satoshi group at the restaurant.

- Diancie attempts to escape after making pile of Diamonds to distract Team Rocket.

- Diacie is unable to escape because gate is locked, but Millis busts the door open with Chesnaught and lets her escape. Diancie eventually reunits with Satoshi group.

- TR gets devastated after Diamonds that Diancie made disappoeared. It turned out that Diancie can't use her skill well enough. She is seeking Xerneas' fairy aura, which will boost up her fairy strength.

Newcomer here! (I can't find the Intro forums, sorry about that!) I herd about the movie and claim that Ayaka owns a Meowstic.... Silly reason to be here I know, but I never imagined a Pokemon movie getting myself hyped!

In short: I know this post may be pointless, but I just want to express that I am looking forward to see it whenever it was available for our eyes! ^^;

Ayaka, in addition to having a Mega Absol, also battles with a male Kaenjishi and a male Nyaonyx. I also don't remember Ayaka actually having any speaking parts but I could be mistaken.

Wow, more Pokémon for Ayaka, I find that great. Fitting, too.

The only pokemon who aren't used in this film are Satoshi's Hinoyakoma, Citron's Horubbi, and Musashi's Bakeccha.

This is actually great to her, glad Serena and Clemont help out too.

Wow, actual kiss on the cheek? In a Pokemon movie? Wow.

Eureka's Dedenne pops out of her pochet with the diamond that Diancie had given to Eureka earlier in the movie; it looks like it didn't disappear like all the others! Our heroes return the diamond to Diancie, saying that it's a symbol of their friendship, and Diancie says she'll take good care of it. The movie ends with the camera zooming into the diamond, revealing a Mega Evolution symbol.

Diancie created its own Mega Stone? I wonder if it's an ability unique to herself or if she can create stones for others too..

An engagement? Between the two villains? WHAT? ...that actually sounds kinda nice.

I have a couple of question (mainly aimed to pK', but anyone who has watched the movie or have reports from watching the movie can try to answer).

Spoiler:- Movie Spoilers:

Question 1: Is Ayaka speaking in the movie at all? Dogasu doesn't remember that although he can't confirm it.
Question 2: When Yveltal turn the charactrers and Pokemon into stone, what Pokemon/Character aren't turned into stone in any moments during the movie
Question 3: Has the atack oblivion Wing (Death Wing) being named in the movie at all?
Question 4: Has Ash seen the outfits that Serena, Eureka and Diancie are wearing in some point of the movie?
question 5 (added): How long the movie lasts?

I don't have more question about the movie for now.

About other things that Dogasu posted and aren't mentioned.
The movie is very close to the manga adaptation. Dogasu only comments on parts that aren't covered in the manga adaptation
The soundtrack used when Diantha battles Wilkstrom (MGardevoir vs MScizor) is the DP Gym Battle music.
There aren't a showdoen between Xerneas and Yveltal in the movie.

Note: I decided to not post post that had cause hate to me anymore. If you see one, please PM me and I will delete the moment I'm aware and I'm online.
I need to take a break in the anime forum because these forum bored me.

From the looks of it, the action in this movie is meh and Yveltal vs Xerneas doesn't even really happen. Wow, that sucks.
I really hope the next movie will indeed feature Mega Groudon and Mega Kyogre. That would be a perfect receipe for some badass action.

Question 1: Is Ayaka speaking in the movie at all? Dogasu doesn't remember that although he can't confirm it.

I'm pretty sure the only sound she made was a "hmph" after the battle, when Ash fanboys over Mega Absol (or Mega Evolutions in general, rather). No words though.

Question 2: When Yveltal turn the charactrers and Pokemon into stone, what Pokemon/Character aren't turned into stone in any moments during the movie

Apart from the protagonists and Diancie (& Xerneas, obviously), everyone gets turned into stone at some point.

Question 3: Has the atack oblivion Wing (Death Wing) being named in the movie at all?

No.

Question 4: Has Ash seen the outfits that Serena, Eureka and Diancie are wearing in some point of the movie?

No, he and Clemont were waiting outside the boutique.

question 5 (added): How long the movie lasts?

No idea on this one, sorry. Isn't it 30 mins (short) + 90 mins (main feature) like last year, though?

Pretty sure he did. Pyroar presumably lost to Pikachu (no swirly eyes were shown, but it collapsed and in the next scene Meowstic was already battling), but Meowstic beat Froakie (I don't recall if this one was ambiguous or not) and Hawlucha lost to Mega Absol (this one was obvious, with swirly eyes and all).

Note: Please only reply to infraction PMs if you 1) have follow-up questions, or 2) seriously intend to contest the infraction, instead of merely complaining about or making fun of it, providing no elaborate counterarguments whatsoever. While I appreciate apologies or promises that "it won't happen again" and the like, they too fulfill no purpose except for cluttering up my inbox. An honest effort to avoid further rule-breaking is worth much more than a one-line PM saying you're sorry anyway. Thanks!
